  1. Had both L322 and L320. L322 all day long and go for a 4.4. TDV8
  2. https://www.turnerengineering.co.uk/rtc-6896-cylinder-head-performance-complete-c2x20634411 Looks nice
  3. Thinking of adding a full width intercooler from Alisport Any comments on boost pins / boost rings?
  4. Thanks for all the replies! Keep the suggestions coming
  5. Any recommendations for a company to carry out a top end overhaul on my 200Tdi? Looking for a reputable and experienced place to remove head, check, overhaul and replace. Proactive maintenance as coming up to 140K miles. I believe Elring composite head gasket is the way forwards. Any experience of just buying a recon head from Turners as a short cut? Thanks in advance for any pointers Rob
  6. Any ideas? Randomly going off after locking with blipper. 200tdi with one button fob. Battery is fine....
  7. Reverse lights gone...I bet it's the flaming switch! Pig to do ?
  8. Yes, only 1 needed. Ordered a few and some new seat covers to smarten the interior up a bit....the old ones have lasted 10 years and drivers has fallen to bits ?
  9. https://www.lrdirect.com/ERR765-Rocker-Cover-End-Plugs-200-Tdi/ £77 for Genuine Must be a typo....?
  10. Have gone for the cheaper ones - not paying over £7 for a small bit of mounded rubber
  11. Great, thanks! Have orderd a genuine gasket and some half moons from Paddocks plus some other bits to get free delivery >£50
  12. Any tips on fitting them? Long story but front one was missing and it's peed oil out over front of engine. Do I fit the new one in with sealant? If yes, what type? Same question for rocker cover gasket.... TIA Rob
  13. Disco 3 Find some well looked after ones over on www.disco3.co.uk
  14. Hope so....not going to rush and swap hose or pump just yet.....
  15. I've ditched them and gone to Heritage. Way better service. Make the jump
  16. Casting is a little rough which is not good for Airtex. Reseated hose with new clip and I think it's worked. Time will tell.....
  17. Could be I guess but would expect better from Airtex. Will have a look....
  18. New bottom hose, new jubille clip, new water pump (Airtex). Why is there now a small weep from the hose/pump interface? (above the jubilee clip) Have moved the hose and clip a bit but still weeps - when cold and hoses squeezed. Weird. Will try a new clip and move the hose down the pump cating a bit and clamp just behind the ferruled casting. After that, will try a new hose....current one might be faulty.... Anyobdy had this before?
  19. Yep, going to try myself and do it....going to invest in some flat sided sockets.... Looks like adjuster is a type of Allen key...can't remember the exact name...
  20. Thanks Dave. Will give it a go. Local place said I'd they would need to take out a shaft so ~3hrs labour.... Or I might come down and get you to supervise me
  21. Thanks Dave! Off to Keith Gott's to get a new seal kit it is! What should I use to re-seal the cover? RV Silicone gasket sealant? How easy to adjust the box? Is that in Haynes lies book? A written guide on here would be gratefully received. Ta Rob
